[Thor really doesn't like the phone. Its constant ringing is fit to drive him mad, he can't figure out how to make it work half the time, he hates memorizing numbers, and he's still not entirely convinced it's not operated by evil spirits. So when it goes off at 6:00 in the morning and then commences banging in his ear, it is not a pleased thunder god who finally decides to reply.]

Are you mad?!

[If Figaro is anywhere within ten feet of the receiver, he will hear this. Thor intended it this way.]

(Oh, Figaro hears it alright. That's why he's now freaking out, because what is this mysterious voice coming from nowhere?)

Ah Dio!

(There's a lot of scrambling noise at the back, ending with a final smash as Figaro trips over the table. And for maximum comedic effect, a jar then falls on his head.)

Maria, I will never drink again!

[Thor, of course, sees none of this. But just in case the person on the other end is listening, he yells louder:]

It is a tellar-fón, you damned fool!

[He is pretty sure that's the word. Or close enough, anyway.]

bravabarber November 29 2011, 07:02:32 UTC

(With trembling fingers Figaro picks up the...tellar-fon (was it?) and speaks to it; it seems the voice is coming from it anyway.)

S-s-si, signore. So you are a tellar-fon?

[Well. Now she's awake. Sarah Jane is accustomed to be woken up by strange noises. Singing is a new one though. At least it's fairly clear that that isn't her drone husband any more.]

Good morning. I imagine you have a fair number of questions.

(When the woman next to him speaks, he peeks out from under the bed sheet.)

Y-yes signora, if you could I would certainly be most grateful.

Well, I suppose I should probably start with the fact that you've been kidnapped. Whatever your home may be, you are a long way from it.

bravabarber November 22 2011, 06:01:11 UTC

K-kidnapped?

(Figaro's genuinely shocked by this.)

But why kidnap lowly me? I'm not of noble birth, at least, I don't think so, and there's no ransom to be paid.

[ Golbez really shouldn't judge, since he had similar problems with the phones just a few days ago, but this is just annoying. ]

It's called a telephone.

bravabarber November 22 2011, 01:59:51 UTC

(The receiver is dropped immediately and it clatters against the ground as the speaker on the other side gives a yell of surprise.)

Ciello, what sorcery is this!?

stoppedhiding November 22 2011, 02:02:01 UTC

That, I haven't yet discerned. But it seems perfectly safe to use, so please calm down.

...can you still hear me?

bravabarber November 22 2011, 06:04:07 UTC

(Figaro approaches the black thing in front of him carefully, and tentatively picks it up from the ground with two fingers. Keeping it far, far away, he speaks to it the other way round.)

Si, signore, I can. And I will try, if only it will help me get out of this nightmare.
